My husband always wanted to go on a helicopter ride, so for his birthday I surprised him with one. I wasn't going to go. I am deathly afraid of heights! DEATHLY! I can tell you.....I ended up going with him because I didn't want him to go alone. I have to say, It was the best experience EVER!! The helpers helped keep me calm, the pilot was amazingly professional, and the ride was breathtaking. If anyone ever has a chance to do this, I highly recommend you do! I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Great experience for our 1st time flying together as a family of 4! Isaiah was a good tour guide and was knowledgeable about not only the landscape but the history behind it. All was wonderful but the price was pretty high for the 8 minute flight.
